Music Business/Law Tips - "Consumer Data = $$$"

Universal has formed The Global Music Data Alliance (GMDA) which will analyze billions of pieces of digital consumer data to hopefully provide new revenue streams to labels and artists. Essentially, GMDA will inspect behavioral patterns of listeners/buyers (e.g., what songs a Democratic voter listens to) to find patterns that can be used for target marketing. This should allow artists to monetize their fan bases more effectively, and allow advertisers to better figure out where to put their ad dollars/which artists to tie in with.
